First, let me explain what the Ancient Land is. You can think of it as a high-level dungeon. It contains valuable leveling experience, equipment, and skills to discover. It's a high-level dungeon that practically everyone in the entire Cosmic Federation wants to enter. After graduating from an academy, you only get a chance to enter once you reach the level of a Star Rank Expert—a truly major figure—and even then, it depends on your connections and how well you've made your way in the world. So, getting the chance to enter that dungeon while you're still a student is incredibly, incredibly rare. If you don't get the chance during your student years, you might spend the rest of your life after graduation without ever getting in...
This isn't Grandpa Lu exaggerating to scare you. There's real data to back it up. The data came from the Federation Bureau of Statistics. The Federation's most professional statisticians conducted a comprehensive survey of data spanning nearly a million eras. Among students who never entered the Ancient Land, only six people in the past million eras—including those who later died—went on to become Star Rank Experts... The entire universe, a million eras, and only six people. Think about those numbers carefully. Could you be one of them?
Therefore, getting into a top-one-hundred academy is an essential prerequisite for making something of yourself. Players, you must build a solid foundation and strive to obtain one of the base's recommendation slots. Otherwise, I'm afraid you may never rise above your circumstances in this lifetime...
Player A: Damn, there's really such a thing? Thanks for explaining, big shot. So, Underfoot Academy in our base doesn't seem to be one of the top hundred academies, right? If we enter it... does that mean our lives are basically over?
